Disgust

By the new flats.

Disgusting buildings.

Of course they’re disgusting. Of course they’re appalling. Of course we’d rather kill ourselves than live there. Of course they have to ruin everything. Of course that’s all they do – ruin things and destroy things. Of course it’d be better for it all to be destroyed.

 

I feel disgust too, you know.

I feel more disgusted by the world than you. I can guarantee it.

Is it a competition?

I’m more appalled. More affronted. I feel more horror. I feel more general irritation. I feel more plain annoyance. I’m better at it than you, Shiva.

Okay, Miss Apocalypse.
